State-owned Argentine Railway Companies
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In 1948 the railway network of Argentina was nationalisation by the president Juan Perón. The previously privately-owned French and British railway companies, together with a number of companies that had been nationalised earlier, were formed into the following six state-owned companies:
- Ferrocarril Domingo Faustino Sarmiento
- Ferrocarril General Bartolomé Mitre
- Ferrocarril General Manuel Belgrano
- Ferrocarril General Roca
- Ferrocarril General San Martín
- Ferrocarril General Urquiza
These companies later together formed Ferrocarriles Argentinos.
